White Supremacy and Gun Control w/ Dhoruba Bin Wahad and Ajamu Baraka

[@fritzyboler230]

I am 76 years old and am elated that you are saying what needs to be said. I have lost 1 son to the events of the military, a son that is homeless and on drugs, a grandson in rehab, a grandson who died 2 days after birth, a husband murdered at a tavern, a niece from drug overdose. All of these events due to non-communication, miscommunication, blaming others for their misfortune and me not understanding the world around me as I was fighting to survive a violent home and finally retreating into my space avoiding most people around me. It was too overwhelming. The few times I tried to connect with my community was met with disappointment and despair. They too were experiencing similar events. I finally disconnected from broad world around me and began to focus on financial security and work. It was not until the coronavirus his that I began to search for answers to "plague" that has infected the majority of the planet. The first main answers I found came from Neely Fuller Jr. (hard to hear and read at first) but I knew what he had to say is true. There is a "virus" over the planet with the most devastating being white supremacy. We respond by ignoring, excusing, tolerating, supporting, denying, applauding the very disease that is destroying us. My research led me C.L.R. James, Gerald Horne, Francis Welsing and others including BRM. I have always been a Malcolm X follower but am still learning.

Always good to hear the words and wisdom of both of our proud warriors

Great discussion Kalonji. I really appreciate the clarity from both Ajamu and Dhoruba. So glad to see Dhoruba looking healthy ✊🏾

[@obedirect5491]

Excellent conversation. I like Dhoruba’s analysis that we act like victims. We will never gain strength waiting for ANYone to rescue us.

[@Gaff.]

A lot of rightists say that, and it's often a dogwhistle, so although I tend to agree with Dhoruba, I think he could have expounded a bit more on that. He must have meant it very differently. I think it would be kind of ludicrous to deny the victimisation perpetrated by the US state, so he probably meant that thinking of yourself as _only_ a victim, and waiting to be saved, is the problem. And of course, unlike rightists, who are generally saying the system is more or less fine and you just need to work a little harder to succeed within it, I imagine Dhoruba is urging people to stop 'thinking like victims' so that they can think like fighters, organise collectively, and at least make gains in dismantling that system entirely. Edit: well, after watching the whole thing, he does clarify this by the end.

[@red_sea]

Great show! Glad to see Dhoruba is doing better!

[@davidsilberg6851]

Legendary stuff right here...thanks Kalonji

[@danagreen4543]

Thank you for this!!!! Always very educational!!!

[@soulnspired888]

I love my elder statesmen! They are cut from another cloth. They are very clear and educated on RWS what it is and how it works in areas of people activity. They give you the reality you need.

[@dodododatdatdat]

Hey im a white dude from The Netherlands and I loved your conversation. Learned a lot from these great men. Thanks for the video

[@joootooobboosheet2486]

You learned a lot of nonsense from these men.

[@LaLasta]

wish i could give 2 million times that, but we be where we be 🙌🏽❤️

Keep bringing the HEAT Kalonji! Excellent!

[@KennyFlagg]

Thankful to find this pod. 👊

[@AfricanPeriod-ic3hn]

Thank you for showing this again!!!

[@ericburkley]

Got to this WAY too late, but nonetheless...another great episode of Riot Starter TV. Peace to Kalonji, Dhoruba and Ajamu. I always appreciate the words.

One of the keys is to stop the system from making money and force them to come to the table

[@callawar]

More brains, less braun is our only hope.

[@regcallaway6692]

@@fun_ghoul The situation for the Africans in the US is broken by design. We cannot plan to improve our condition because the system does not want us to have self-determination. I don't see much discussion or plans on how to fight back. In my opinion, this requires brainpower, not brawn.

[@gravydale]

Earnest question. How is Columbia like Israel? (Ajamu's statement)

[@animatedbaseball]

Run by a comprador class to act as a staging ground for US imperialism in an area theyre trying to plunder. Western imperialism needs them to discipline any nation/group/movement that builds something that doesnt involve selling out to the US www.telesurenglish.net/analysis/The-Infiltration-of-Colombian-Paramilitaries-into-Venezuela-20150824-0005.html

[@smilectics]

they're both imperialist satellites and puppet states

[@dodododatdatdat]

I think he meant it as a US mouthpiece or springboard in the continent it wants to have influence on. Colombia is US strongest (most corrupted through the war on drugs) ally in South America. Israel is strongest US ally in Middle East. Like the UK in EU and Phillipines/ South Korea in Asia

[@philipwipernickle4780]

How do these events where the west is occupied and capitalism is fighting itself, could we utilize to expand community, socialisms, and organizations that we want empowered?

Also didn't they make the Second Amendment because of the uprisings of that was going on from the African people in America so they had to make a second Amendment cuz they were scared that it was going to happen again🤔

[@joootooobboosheet2486]

You're delusional. It had to do with the citizens being able to defend their own nation from a foreign and/or domestic threat.

[@nnamdixrevolutionary8883]

@@joootooobboosheet2486 so we know who the domestic threat is. But foreign threats come on bro🤣🤣

[@joootooobboosheet2486]

@@nnamdixrevolutionary8883 Yes. The founding fathers had put in the right of the people to be a part of their own militias, as well as bearing arms. It was for enemies both foreign and domestic. Go back and read what the founding fathers wrote about the reason they added that to the Bill of Rights, BRO.

[@nnamdixrevolutionary8883]

@@joootooobboosheet2486 for one. Those white folks are not my founding fathers. Two they did not make the amendment thinking about us. They made the amendment because of the revolts that was happening during that time the slavery vaults. So they say yo we need arms. Two there is no foreign f****** Invasion coming into this sickening ass country. The only foreign Invasion that is going on is the virus called America.

[@komiczar]

The fault is not the media propaganda itself. The problem is the lack of independent compassionate critical thinking and discernment intentionally focused within the context of virtues that can make one internally free and victimless, instead of vices that invite internal and external enslavement, that promotes and supports the conditioned helplessness that feeds the victim mentality.
